Abstract
An adapter device includes a printed circuit board (PCB), an output port disposed on the PCB and having first pins, where the output port is to be connected to an output harness that is connected to an adaptive device. The adapter also includes wireless circuitry one of disposed on or coupled to the PCB and a processing device disposed on the PCB and coupled to the output port and wireless circuitry. The processing device is to: identify, via the wireless circuitry, an actuation command from a wireless signal received from a handheld electronic device; translate the actuation command to one or more actuation bits that match one of analog-converted bits receivable over an input harness or digital control bits receivable over a wireless controller associated with the adaptive device; and provide the actuation bits to the first pins, the actuation bits causing the adaptive device to perform a specific action.
